A luxury knitwear manufacturing company has submitted plans to expand its island base.
The Albion Knitting Company moved its production base to the island from London just under two years ago.
Since then it has established itself on the Ronaldsway Industrial Estate in Ballasalla and partnered with the TT to be a knitwear provider.
Its application shows it wants to build a two-storey extension to south west elevation of existing factory to replace existing two story office block.
